Federal cleaning demand in Charlotte–Concord–Gastonia, NC–SC
Charlotte's federal janitorial market is led by VA VISN 6 (Mid-Atlantic Health Care Network), which serves the metro through the W.G. (Bill) Hefner VA Medical Center in nearby Salisbury NC (the primary full-service VA hospital for Charlotte-area veterans) and the Charlotte VA Health Care Center outpatient clinic at University Executive Park. Network Contracting Office 6 (NCO 6, 36C246) handles all VA janitorial solicitations for the region, consistently using SDVOSB set-asides with 15+ competitive bids on major awards. GSA Region 4 (Southeast-Sunbelt) manages the Charles R. Jonas Federal Building and US Courthouse at 401 W Trade Street in uptown Charlotte, issuing recurring custodial BPAs. The FAA Eastern Service Area operates the Charlotte ARTCC (Air Route Traffic Control Center) in Cary NC, generating a standalone custodial requirement. The SCA Janitor floor for Mecklenburg, Cabarrus, Gaston, Iredell, Lincoln, Rowan, and Union counties NC plus Lancaster and York counties SC is $14.83/hr under WD 2015-4423 Rev 27.
